Lets Discuss Super Mario 3D Land

[Solid-Stark]

 

Hello all, as the title says, share your thoughts on Super Mario 3D Land.

Personally, I thought the game was awesome. I enjoyed it more than the Galaxy's on the Wii (I miss my Wii), but that's not to say the Galaxy's were bad in any way. I'm currently in the last world of the special stages; I have grown tired of getting the star medals. Anyway, I thought it was brilliant to mix in 2D and 3D platforming, and i prefered levels ending with flags than to repeatedly enter a level and find the star on a different platform.

Where do you think Nintendo will go from here? Nintendo has announced a 2D platformer New Super Mario Bros Mii for the WiiU but it's innevitable that they will come out with a 3D Mario also. Would they go for similar gameplay like 3D land? What theme or gameplay would they go for in the next installment ( i.e. Galaxy was in space)
